The drama – which stars Jenna Coleman and Tom Hughes – ends its first run on ITV this Sunday but is already confirmed for a return next year.

Taking part in a Twitter Q&A with Radio Times, Goodwin was asked whether she had begun writing series two and when it would find its way to screens, to which she replied...

The model follows that of fellow ITV period drama Downton Abbey which traditionally aired in autumn and included Christmas specials for five of its six series.
